HUNTER’S LESSON PLAN
SUBJECT:Events Leading Up to the Revolutionary War NAME: Mariah Lowder
Rationale for selecting the learning outcomes: It is important for students to grasp this information about the events leading up to the Revolutionary War because it meets one of the standard course objectives. The lesson plan below will teach the students the information that will be needed for the EOG, but in a creative, fun way. Hopefully by asking the students to be creative with a bubble map (using bubbl.us) and talking head the students will retain more of the information than if they just copied notes.
DATE: 11/7/2011 TIME ALLOTTED: 45 minutes ORGANIZATION: The students will be in groups of 4 to make a bubble map of ideas that they can use later when they individually create their own “talking heads.”
Objectives (from NC Standard Course of Study):
2.01 - Trace the events leading up to the Revolutionary War and evaluate their relative significance in the onset of hostilities. Student Learning Outcomes: At the end of this lesson, students will: choose one of the significant events leading up to the Revolutionary War after using Bubbleus and making a bubble map of all the events and create a talking head telling how the event happened. Teaching Mode: - Direct Provision for Individual Differences: Make sure when the students in the groups can respectively work together.
Teaching Strategy(ies): - Promote Discussion - Present lecture - Facilitate group work
LESSON ACTIVITIES (COMPLETE 1-8) STEP 1: Anticipatory Set:3 minutes Make a list on the board what the students already know about the Revolutionary War STEP 2: Overview of learning outcomes to pupils: 30 seconds By the end of today students will be able choose one of the many events leading up to the Revolutionary war and creatively retell the story. STEP 3: Input of information:15 minutes Slideshow of the notes STEP 4: Modeling/Examples:3 minutes Show my example of the bubble map using bubbl.us and my talking head STEP 5: Checking for Understanding: 5 minutes Ask a couple students to pick an event and summarize what happened. STEP 6: Guided Practice:15 minutes Students will work in groups of four and make a bubble map using bubbl.us (1 bubble map per group) of the events leading up to the Revolutionary War. They also will individually pick the event that they intend on using for their talking head. If needed students can print the “heads” they will need to complete the at home assignment. STEP 7: Independent Practice:At home Students will create a talking head explaining what happened at the event they choose. STEP 8: Closure:4 minutes Students now have the chance to ask any questions concerning the lesson and/or the take home assignment Materials needed for this lesson: - Computers for group work - Printer - Power point presentation-construction paper***
